Lossless Audio Playback on Samsung BD-C6900

[zamarac17]

Hi Paul,

I tried your test profile with 2 different albums & singers, and it doesn't work for multichannel flac. There are multiple issues:

- 2-channel flac plays OK via analog and optical, but Mezzmo can't show playlist from a Cue sheet (despite its read OK by ffmpeg), so only 1st song can play, and even that one can't play to its end at times, but other times it can play all tracks in sequence
- 5.1 channel flac plays very slow fully distorted via both analog and optical, just like with default profile. Again, Mezzmo can't read Cue sheet, so there is no playlist visible
- mp3 works OK and shows playlist (list of MP3 files in a folder)

Transcoding Pan shows no transcoding failures for both 2 and 6 channel flac. Can you fix these issues? Also, this Samsung player and my Onkyo receiver support 96Khz audio, can you add that setting to the profile?

I'll check with Samsung if the device does support multichannel LPCM decoding to multichannel analog RCA or Dolby Surround via S/PDIF. The problem is, their Manuals are incomplete, website doesn't give much either, and 1st level support staff doesn't know a thing beyond published Manual.

P.S. I just chatted with Samsung, and was told, the player does support multichannel LPCM decoding while playing a BD disk, but they have no info if that's also supported via LAN playback, so assume it is, since decoding algorithm should be the same via the same rendering chipset.
